2018 MAZDA6

Cutting-Edge and a Cut Above.

From our latest award-winning technology to a beautifully refreshed exterior and premium interior, the 2018 MAZDA6 is a class above refined. Now with four models to choose from, including a new Signature model, and a new, available turbocharged engine▲, the MAZDA6 offers new features such as available ventilated seats▼, Sen wood accents◆, a matrix of safety technologies and our legendary connection between car and driver. The MAZDA6 is an engineering and aesthetic marvel made for loving every minute of the drive.

SKYACTIV TECHNOLOGY

Improved

Engineering the Impossible.

At Mazda, creating a better driving experience is our first priority. So we did the impossible: Engineered a vehicle that never sacrifices performance for fuel efficiency. SKYACTIV TECHNOLOGY is a holistic system of innovations that takes the entire car into consideration – from body construction and engine technology to chassis and transmission – to improve the overall driving experience.

The Ultimate Responsive Drive

Improved

The MAZDA6 chassis has been thoroughly revised to deliver greater agility and a dramatic reduction in Noise, Vibration and Harshness (NVH).

SKYACTIV-G with Cylinder Deactivation

New

The high-efficiency 2.5 L SKYACTIV-G now comes with Cylinder Deactivation.‡ When you’re driving in steady speed situations, two of the four cylinders will deactivate when not required, but activate instantaneously when needed for maximum performance. Aside from maintaining superb fuel economy, you’ll also enjoy the reduced Noise, Vibration and Harshness (NVH).

SKYACTIV-G 2.5 T Dynamic Pressure Turbo Engine

New

Mazda’s industry-first Dynamic Pressure Turbo engine▲ delivers a boost in both horsepower (227 hp) and torque (310 lb ft). Extra power is provided by using a small inlet port to force air into its turbocharger, akin to how water velocity increases when putting a thumb over a hose.

SKYACTIV-VEHICLE DYNAMICS with G-Vectoring Control

Award-winning

Embrace S Curves.

Winner of the AJAC 2017 Best New Innovation Technology Award, SKYACTIV-VEHICLE DYNAMICS with G-Vectoring Control (GVC) works behind the scenes to achieve a smoother, less fatiguing drive for you and your passengers by subtly adjusting engine torque, intentionally optimizing vehicle weight transfer during everyday commutes and spirited drives alike. The result is steering that is more precise and a ride that is more comfortable for drivers and passengers.

More Confidence

Due to irregularities and undulations in the road surface, your vehicle does not always travel along the expected line, forcing you to make steering corrections. With GVC, your MAZDA6 responds to driver inputs with fewer steering adjustments, so your vehicle behaves as you intend and you enjoy a more confident drive.

More Comfort

Fatigue steadily builds as you continue to make minor steering corrections. GVC helps alleviate these corrections, especially over long distances. Plus, smooth transitions between G-forces, suppress head and body sway, allowing for a more comfortable ride for you and your passengers.

Enhanced Peace of Mind

GVC enhances handling, stability and the feeling of the tires gripping the road. You’ll gain an even greater feeling of control and security during evasive manoeuvres as well as in rain, snow and on poor road surfaces.

Interior Luxury

Improved

A Striking Vision of Elegance

The evolution of KODO design and a new mature elegance grace the MAZDA6 interior. Completely refreshed with new features such as a redesigned dash and instrument cluster, the MAZDA6 is crafted to inspire a love of the drive. From wider, sculpted seats with thicker padding and available Sen wood◆ and Ultrasuede®◆ on the new Signature model to standard automatic dual-zone climate controls and even better sound insulation, every detail of the 2018 MAZDA6 makes driving a joy.

New Signature Model

New

New for 2018, the MAZDA6 Signature comes with Nappa leather seats, Sen wood and Ultrasuede® accents on the dash and door panels and premium cross-stitching on the steering wheel. Paired with the Dynamic Pressure Turbo engine, this new premium model captures the essence of perfection.

Sound Effects

Improved

For 2018, Mazda designers enhanced exterior noise control, adding more sound-deadening materials, like thicker floor panels and rear wheel housing inner walls. The result is a quieter ride that lets you hear your music better – or just enjoy the peace and quiet a little more.

Windshield-projected colour Active Driving Display (ADD)

Improved

The new full-colour, windshield-projected Active Driving Display (ADD)▼ projects critical driving information directly in your field of view, allowing you to keep your eyes focused on the road. Now included is our Traffic Sign Recognition (TSR)▼†† system which reads speed limit, do not enter and stop signs.

Automatic Dual-zone Climate Controls

Now standard on all models, automatic dual-zone climate controls create individual micro-climates for driver and front passenger. Set your preferred temperature setting and let the automated system keep you comfortable throughout your drive.

Ventilated Front Seats

New

Standard on the GT and Signature models, the new ventilated front seat system draws air through ventilation ports in the seats, drawing hot and humid air away from areas where the seat comes into contact with your body – and delivering a more comfortable driving environment.

Intuitively Smart Safety.

Safety

The 2018 MAZDA6 comes with a full complement of passive and active safety features to help keep you safe. We’ve taken into account the finer details, such as placing easy-to-read, uncluttered instrumentation within the driver’s sightlines. The available suite of i-ACTIVSENSE safety features uses the latest innovations such as camera, radar and laser technology to give you a better sense of your surroundings. For 2018, more i-ACTIVSENSE features are standard on all models. And even the SKYACTIV-Body and -Chassis use ultra-high-tensile steel to help protect occupants in case of an accident.

Mazda Radar Cruise Control (MRCC) with Stop & Go Function‡‡

This system judges the relative speed and distance to the car ahead, right down to 0 km/hour, to maintain a safe following distance. And for enhanced safety, if the vehicle ahead stops, your vehicle will automatically stop and hold in a standing start until you resume the set speed. The system’s Close Proximity Warning provides audible and visual warnings when it senses your vehicle fast approaching the one ahead.

Smart Brake Support (SBS)‡‡

SBS can help avoid or reduce the severity of a collision at speeds above 16 km/hour and will alert the driver and apply the brakes in the case of an impending collision.

Smart City Brake Support (SCBS)

When travelling at speeds between 4 –30 km/hour, SCBS detects objects ahead and prepares the vehicle by adjusting brake pads closer to the disc. If no driver action is taken, the system automatically applies the brakes. Now standard on all models.

Pedestrian Detection (Forward Sensing)

The MAZDA6 now has the available feature of Pedestrian Detection. When Smart City Brake Support (SCBS) is paired with Smart Brake Support (SBS)‡‡, the system can also detect pedestrians at speeds between 10 and 80 km/hr.

ABSM detects objects and fast-approaching vehicles in your left and right blind spots and alerts you with a warning light and chime. RCTA detects a vehicle approaching from the side when reversing. Now standard on all models.

Lane-keep Assist System (LAS)‡‡

When it senses a potential unintentional lane departure, LAS will perform minor steering corrections to help guide your vehicle back to the centre of the lane.

Adaptive Front-lighting System (AFS)▼

AFS helps you see around corners at night. As you turn into a corner, the headlights pivot up to 15 degrees in the direction of your turn, improving visibility and allowing you to spot potential hazards and dangers ahead.

Forward Obstruction Warning (FOW)‡‡

Traffic Sign Recognition System▼

The Traffic Sign Recognition system†† uses cameras to read road signs such as speed limit, do not enter and stop signs. The Windshield-projected colour Active Driving Display shows this information so you can stay informed without taking your eyes off the road.

360° View Monitor◆

New

Using four cameras on the front sides and rear, and eight parking sensors the 360° View Monitor generates a surround view of the MAZDA6 from the top. An alarm sounds when near obstacles and also assists in monitoring blind spots.

Front and Rear Parking Sensors◆

Front and rear parking sensors use ultrasonic sensors to detect obstructions around the MAZDA6 while parking and notify the driver of their approximate distance from the vehicle using a beep sound. Just one more safety measure for added peace of mind.

Infotainment

Connections You Can Count On.

Our most technologically advanced MAZDA6 is also equipped with our most technologically advanced cockpit. Enjoy connectivity features to suit everyone’s preferences, starting with the HMI Commander that allows the driver to easily control everything from navigation to audio with controls placed at your fingertips.
